I thought Clary did well when he filled in for Olivea in 2007. It wasn't till after 2008, I realized he needs to be replaced.

That's called the Toniu Fonuti Factor. No one really realized Olivea was bad (even Olivea) until after he'd filled in for Fonuti long enough to be bequeathed the spot. The same went for Clary. Because Shane plane so horribly after he got his big extension, no one really latched onto the fact that Clary wasn't "better" than Olivea, he was just different or "not Olivea" which made all the difference in the world. A year later folks finally saw the light.

Kinda crazy to think how much time has passed since then

I'm sure I was still in college. Hell I might have been in high school back then. To quote the great Ron Simmons... "Damn"_________________

Dang, make me feel old...

Well. To be fair I was in college damn near 7 years consecutively. 4.5 to finish my Bachelors, plus an extra semester of just messing around before filing to actually graduate so I could finish my senior year of playing college soccer. Then a year and a half for my credential. Then I was back in school again another 3 years after that to get my Masters.

I'm right there with you kram. I turned 12 the year Dookie came out. Zapp has a year on us. Drew and BS are the gray bushes around here._________________
